Day Eight

Hi everyone.  I am now on day 8.  Things are great. Still a little exhausted, but the ambition is coming back.  How is everyone?

I feel the same way.  Please remember, that no matter how slow and progressive your taper is, you are going to have some withdrawals.  Will you have any access to any pills next week?  If you don't it will be a lot easier not to use of course.  I can't say how severe your w/d's will be, but PLEASE prepare yourself for the worst. I am not trying to scare you, just let you know what you are in for.  
1.  Have some immodium on hand.
2.  Drink plenty of clear fluids, preferably water.
3.  Take 800 mg. Ibuprofen a couple of times a day.
4.  Email me if you need support.

I will be praying for you.

I must have missed the post.  What was the title of the topic?  


The most important part of w/d is preparing yourself. It looks like you are doing that.  Who am I to say?  I can get through the w/d's.  I have done it a lot.  I have also relapsed a lot, but always after 2-3 weeks when the w/d's are over.
